Beatles '64: preview

When The Beatles landed at Kennedy Airport in New York City on February 7th 1964, the hysteria that greeted them from the plane catapulted them from beloved British band to global superstars, with the following performance on The Ed Sullivan Show being watched by more than 73 million viewers to become the most watched television event to that point in history.

Beatles ‘64, a new feature-length documentary from director David Tedeschi, charts this remarkable trip to the US with never-before-seen footage of the band and their rabid young fanbase. The film is produced by legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese, himself responsible for some of music’s greatest documentaries and concert films, including Rolling Thunder Revue, Shine a Light and George Harrison documentary Living in the Material World.

The film also promises to offer a unique insight into the friendship between John, Paul, George and Ringo as they’re catapulted to unprecedented levels of fame. Rare footage of the band has been painstakingly remastered in 4K by Peter Jackson’s Park Road Post, who also restored footage for Disney Plus’ previous Beatles doc, Get Back, and performances from their 1964 tour have also been remixed using technology familiar to those who enjoyed the 2022 reissue of Revolver.

Here we explain how to watch Beatles ‘64 from anywhere, and don't forget to check why Disney Plus is the best streaming service for music fans.

Watch Beatles '64 from abroad with a VPN

Disney+ is now available in over 80 countries worldwide. But if you're away from home you might find yourself geo-blocked from your usual account.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle. It creates a private connection between your device and the internet, allowing you to appear to be in your home country. There are lots of VPNs to choose from, but we think NordVPN is currently the very best VPN for streaming.
